Just add an adjustable brake bias valve as well then!!

Amen.
You and I can (un)officially form the LZ grammar nazi squad because it is one, if not the, biggest of my pet hates.

You could but I know I'd rather spend 30 odd quid on a sensible solution to a problem...

Prop seems fine... Also each wheel feels different it would be the same if it was the prop? I'm going to take the shoes out just to make sure

Just wondering if it's something moving around that gets stopped when brakes are on
Any of the bearings, seals, and bushes could do this. Load moves to different areas under braking, and it may be unloading a worn/pitted/thrown part. Eg the rear lifts under braking, unloading the rear axle.
Could also be a broken tooth in the diff?
My money's on a wheel bearing.

Ok. Managed to get some time today after I bought a trolly jack. I've located the sound of the noise. It's diff side of the prop on the rear. The diff has a guard which on close inspection is way too close to the UJ and as such is catching on one side as it spins. Seems to get worse when warm. I've spaced the diff guard with a washer which has solved the issue.
I also removed the drums and checked the brakes which are all ok
